Hey everyone! I just joined this site and I'm super excited to finally be a part of a Samurai Shodown playing community! Honestly, my friends are mostly slaves to the evil tormentor that is Street Fighter, and will hardly touch Samurai Shodown even though I urge them to play it. I'm pretty much a noob at the game but at least I know I can beat super noobs with ease XD. My favorite character is Rera. I'm exhausting every resource I know to become a better Rera player but all of them are failing me, Gamefaqs being the worse. When I asked for help, someone told me to switch to Nakoruru and forget Rera -_-.Well, I feel stupid for not properly introducing myself yet, my name is Elric Grasso. ^_^

Hello. I assume you are going to play SS games online, so I would recommend http://2dfighter.com as service with good connection speed and good selection of SS games (SS1,2,3,4,5sp). As for Rera, she is strong but hard to play with since her wolf mount is an unique gameplay element, and it changes her properties completely. In SS5sp she is among the top tiers by strength. If you want to see good Rera battles, look replays of m216xlegendx player on 2dfighter service

Yes, me and alot of people I know play on keyboard, and people ragequit vs me regularly since they are unable to win.If your keyboard beeps during simultaneous button presses of 3 or more buttons, use button shortcuts. For example this is my SS5sp config:

WASD are directionsUIO are three slashes (A,B,AB)JKL are kick, dodge, grab (C,D,CD)YHN are other combinations (AC,BC,BD)Space is Rage Explosion (ABC)Left Ctrl is State of Nothingness / Issen (BCD)8 is Enja's super cancel (ABCD)
